LG plasma TV with no jack plug socket help needed.

Hi, I have a 2012 LG plasma TV and it has no jack socket/headphone socket, I have a Bose companion 3 series 2 speaker set and these connect with a jack plug, any ideas how I can get these working on the TV?

There 'should' be audio output on the SCART socket on the TV - although there may not be from all available inputs.

Basically you're trying to connect a modern TV to an antique sound system - the TV will have an optical audio out, which would connect to a modern system.

Thank you, just a quick question, the twin phono cable, would that be the red and white on one end then the jack on the other ( so twin in the scart in back of the TV and the jack plug into the back of the Bose system).

If your LG TV is anything like the one's I've owned the SCART adapter is only useful if you only ever watch the built in tuner.

However if you have a DVD player for example plugged in to the TV you won't get any sound out of it when playing a disk. As I posted above the only way to get sound from whatever source you are viewing is to use the optical digital out.

If you want audio from an external device, you'd be better to plug direct into the device, rather than the TV. Most have analogue phonos out.

Does your Bose system not have phonos in?

If it's minijack only, then yes, black and red phonos to minijack lead...

That would be an option IF the BOSE kit the OP has had more than one input. Which it doesn't. So he would have to use some sort of external switch and remember to select the correct input for whatever he was watching.

Far easier to have the telly do the input selection so that the audio always matches the pictures.
